Turffontein Race 6 - Racing Today Pinnacle Stakes
THE EQUATOR (1) returned from a break last start with a solid fifth over 1800m in Group 3 class at this track, beaten 3.5 lengths. Has a solid record at this venue with two wins from six starts. Fitter and this easier. Will give a great sight. DON'T CRY FOR ME (4) returned from a spell two-and-a-half weeks ago when he was beaten 5 lengths into 13th over 1400m at Vaal. Safely held fresh but fitter and best form is here and second-up. Expected to improve sharply. KING'S EXPRESS (3) turned in a nice effort to score two runs ago at Turffontein Inside. Safely held last time out when seventh over a mile here. Placed 2/2 this course and distance. Hard to beat in this suitable race. HAWKBILL (6) missed the placings when resuming two runs back then didn't do any better last start when 13 lengths away in 11th over 2000m at Turffontein Inside. Better than that and gets chance to atone.

Comes off a 50 day let-up. Most recently 7th of 12 at this track on May 16 over 1600m, 5 len behind Errol Flynn carrying 62kg at $26. Before that won by a neck at Turffontein Inside April 9 over 1600m defeating Money Heist carrying 59kg at $11. Rates highly and is among the main hopes.

Third-up today and placed third-up in the past. Resuming ran second last in a small field at this track on May 10 over 1800m, 8 len behind Pressonregardless with 54kg at $26. Last start ran second last of 12 at Turffontein Inside on June 4 over 2000m, 13 len behind The Playboy Bomber with 59.7kg at $51. Better than that recent ordinary performance suggests.
